Marsilac District, Administrative district in southern São Paulo, Brazil.

Marsilac spans the largest land area within São Paulo municipality, containing vast sections of Atlantic Forest and three former railway stations.

The district received its name from engineer Jose Alfredo Marsilac, who developed road construction techniques despite losing his vision in 1932.

The district maintains strong agricultural traditions with local markets where residents sell organic produce from small-scale farms throughout the region.

Located 60 kilometers from São Paulo city center, Marsilac connects to neighboring municipalities through a network of roads and former railway infrastructure.

This district holds the lowest population density in São Paulo, with considerable areas at sea level within the Capivari River valley.
